We have had democracy in the UK for a few hundred years, and we have had the balancing effect of women voters for about 90 years, so you would think that Parliament should be almost redundant by now. I think they are just playing at running the country for what they personally can get out of it, and the Civil Service (that’s an oxymoron) just keeps getting bigger. There is no incentive to get things right because they would no longer be needed. The voters, who are not Politicians or Civil Servants, should bring a case of misrepresentation against all of them.

On Friday August 25th, I conducted an experiment. I spent the day answering political questions with nothing but short sound-bites of fundamentalist rhetorical dogma, as opposed to my more common long-winded (some say, boring) philosophical sermons about tolerance. Many people emailed me asking what had happened to me. But several also brought to light an interesting question...

What is more important to you, the message or the person speaking it? If someone you trust says something that you find offensive, how often do you take it at face value just because of who said it? Or if someone that you despise happens to say something you would agree with (had anyone else said it), do you accept their statement because you agree with the message, or reject it because you don't like the speaker?

What influences you more, the message or the speaker?

If so should the county push thing in that dicertion.
